GBA 219 Anna Sulan Masing

In GBA 219 we get better acquainted with Anna Sulan Masing. She talks about how food, performance and post colonial feminism are bound up together in her in her life and work, discusses cultural practice and appropriation and considers her feelings and thoughts around identity, race, gender and home. We also discuss her new play "Don't sing in the kitchen or you'll marry an old man", my solo show "What About the Men? Mansplaining Masculinity" and the survey I did of 1000 anonymous men.
